I've been stock-piling info for an upcoming build. One of the things that always drove me nuts about my 914 was the braking. Even with the BMW/steel lines/braided lines conversion I did, I never felt like I could stop well.

Some quick searches landed me on these.

Brakes like these: eBay Item #251314540239

I did some searching, but didn't find much. With the Boxter brakes being relatively inexpensive, what are the thoughts about these kits?

Here's my criteria next time.

5-bolt pattern (Easy to do)
Big Brakes (e-brake is nice, but I can live without.)
Big Rotors (This may take some work?)

Thoughts?
